1 SHAKESHAFT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 SHAKESHAFT COTTAGE sales from June 2000 and August 2006 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the June 2000 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.4%, between August 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Lichfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 SHAKESHAFT COTTAGE of £309,500 on 15th August 2006. For the value to have increased from £309,500 to £558,448 over the nineteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
